Wacky Fun, No Nudity in the Film

I made the title just to save the time of anyone who looked at the score and was like "are there naked people in this?" Well, there's your answer.

Don't get me wrong, that doesn't affect the score; I've watched porn videos that were better written, so that wouldn't really have done them any good here, but I kind of feel that movies like this usually have naked people in it, so I guess they subverted expectations? Yay? I don't know kids; the Kaptain is off his meds at the moment so maybe take this review with more than the usual dosage of salt.

Anyway, this movie is wacky as heck. I watched it in English and for some reason it felt like a nutty anime, really goofy vibes coupled with badly dubbed audio. This produced some unintentional humor, so it is maybe worth a look for that.

So I want to add that Manon Azem is my new waifu. I am totally smitten with her, that curly hair and those green eyes...MMM. I will move to France, learn French, do whatever it takes to win her heart. YOU CAN'T STOP OUR LOVE!

Sorry, off my meds. ANYWAY!

All the actors are decent enough in this, the script is just so bananas that you really can't take it seriously, which is really why this is worth a 4. It's a great movie to watch with very low expectations. There were some genuine laughs to be had, and today was a weird, unmedicated kind of day for me, and I really needed this.

There is one creepy guy who is the leader of the baddies who for some reason reminded me of a demented John Malkovich, and I couldn't stop laughing at him. I think this was intentional. I couldn't think of a way to make this sentence fit with the other stuff I wrote about the actors so it gets its own paragraph thing.

I have no idea how to end this so I'm just going to stop.
